Wire position sensor
Type DST X800
For mobile hydraulic applications
The Danfoss DST X800 wire position sensor is
developed to ensure a robust and highperformance solution mobile hydraulic
applications. The stability control of e.g. a
crane, telehandler or aerial platform is kept
under control with draw wire sensors that
determine the withdrawal of lateral stabilizers
at dierent positions. On same applications the
draw wire on the boom could prevent overturn
of the machine.
Danfoss DST X800 series uses contactless Hall
technology with measurement ranges up to 8.3
meter.
The sensor is designed for o-highway
applications and resistant to shock and
vibrations and with high electromagnetic
compatibility and comes with both analog or
CANopen output.
Single and redundant sensor types are
available, making the complete portfolio
suitable for safety-critical applications.
Features:
• Hall eect technology for almost innite
sensor life time
• Single or redundant range: 1.8 – 8.3 m
• Output: Analog or CANopen
• Electrical connector: M12 or cable
• Linearity: < ±0.5% FS
• IP protection level IP67
